Default c6 Z06 Wheels

hey guys, new to the forum here. Working on year number two with my C5 Z06, torch red and except for the shift ****, bone stock. I was wondering if you can fit C6 Z06 wheels directly onto a C5 Z and where can I get some. also my car is in Houston so if any one knows of a place around there that I can some that would be great.

I think the offsets are different, but I know you can buy C6 Z06 reproductions in C5 Z sizes. I've been toying with the idea myself.

you'd have to get flared fenders for the OEM sized rear wheels to look right.






i run OEM-sized rear wheels, and you can see they'd stick out pretty far without the flares.

but if you get it all done, it can look very nice.
